Abstract:
Developmental Dyslexia (DD) is a complex, cognitive disorder which is characterised by an impairment in reading despite adequate educational, motivational and intellectual opportunities. Family and twin studies have shown that this common neurodevelopmental disorder has a highly heritable component. The aim of this thesis was to identify novel susceptibility variants for DD using several approaches. A candidate gene study was conducted, testing variants within the genes CDC42, PRTG, KIAA0319L, DCDC2b and RIOK3 for association with DD in the Cardiff case-control sample. None of the variants wit

Abstract:
The population level bias towards right-handedness in humans implies left-hemisphere dominance for fine motor control. Left-handedness and reduced cerebral asymmetry have been linked to neurodevelopmental disorders such as dyslexia. Understanding the biology of these traits at a genetic level is crucial for understanding the relationship between handedness and neurodevelopmental disorders. Here I present genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analyses for both relative hand skill (handedness, n = 728) and reading-related traits (n = 548) in individuals with dyslexia.

Abstract:
The first two QTL (quantitative-trait locus) based whole genome-wide linkage screens for DD (developmental dyslexia) susceptibility identified linkage to chromosome 18 at 18p11.2 in a set of UK and US families. This has since been replicated in several other independent studies. This thesis describes the fine mapping of the DD susceptibility QTL on chromosome 18 by genotyping and analysing a denser set of microsatellite markers. This work revealed the identification of a second QTL for DD at 18q12.2.

Abstract:
Dyslexia is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects between 5% and 12% of school-aged children. Individuals with dyslexia have difficulties in learning to read despite normal IQ levels and adequate socio-economical and educational opportunities. Dyslexia has a strong genetic component, but only a few candidate genes have been characterized to date. The KIAA0319 gene is a strong dyslexia candidate found to be associated with dyslexia in independent studies. The KIAA0319 genetic variants associated with dyslexia reside in a regulatory region. Studies in rat suggested that this gene is require

Au cours des années précédentes, les TSA ont été considérés comme un ensemble complexe de troubles monogéniques.

Abstract:
As a specific reading disability with a neurobiological origin, developmental dyslexia is distinct from reading difficulties due to sensory impairments in vision or hearing. The disability is commonly attributed to a core deficit in phonological processing, the understanding of how phonemes, syllables and words are used in a language. Dyslexia is a complex genetic disorder with a strong genetic component; nine susceptibility loci (DYX1-9) have been identified with eight other dyslexia linkages lacking gene symbols also reported.

Abstract:
Developmental Dyslexia (DD) refers to a reading disorder affecting individuals that possess otherwise normal intelligence. Having demonstrated by familial and twin studies, genetic factors are found to be of major significance to DD development. A strong dyslexia susceptibility gene KIAA0319 (K), of which crucial role in DD had been revealed by various linkage and association studies, was found to have 40% reduction in expression in the DD risk haplotype. Besides, both up- and down-regulation of K would result in impaired neuronal migration in rat. Despite the undoubtedly strong linkage of K t
